Webex

Webex is an enterprise-level web conferencing, communication, and collaboration tool designed by Cisco that gives room for people to host or participate in online meetings, video conferencing, webinars, cloud callings, and screen sharing. Users can participate in meetings through the mobile app, web, or Webex desktop. The application combines two platforms—Webex Meeting, and WebexTeam.
